like wise, washington is very focused on that, too. so i think that the trend here, the expectation is that we'll postpone most of the major decisions until some sort of structured tax reform process next year. we'll make whatever down papal we need to make on the budget sequester in order to postpone that decision, too. the real question is really what you do with tax rates, particularly the upper income individual tax rates. so there's actually a relatively narrow spectrum of things that need to be agreed upon by the end of the year. so, you know -- >> does this spell death for divide dividend stocks then? >> i think that dividend stocks are in roughly good shape. the senate over the summer passed a marker bill on tax reform, which had a 20% dividend -- tax rate on dividends. what i think that does is give investors some confidence that it's not going to triple. we're probably looking at a tax rate on the order of 20% plus the 3.8% for health care on top of that. that's a much more moderate outcome than a 44% tax rate. >> all right,
